In this study, the morphological and statistical characteristics of stripe signals are analyzed in detail. Based on the concept of mathematical morphology denoising, connected domains are constructed in a noise- containing stripe image, and the noise is removed using the difference in connected domains area between signals and noises. It is shown that, for stripe signals, the proposed denoising method is significantly more efficient than Wiener filtering.展开更多

Besides the main measuring laser beam,the second beam is used to decrease the error of time synchronization. The third beam has n+0.5 pixels' difference compared to the main measuring beam on a CCD, and it is used to correct the error caused by CCD discrete sampling. A three-dimensional(3D) imaging experiment using this scheme is carried out with time bin size of 0.066 ns(i.e., corresponding to a distance of 9.9 mm). An image of a 3D model is obtained with the depth resolution of 〈2 mm, which corresponds to ~0.2 pixel.展开更多
